    Dufferin Street: Eliminating the jog

    They should fully charge and severely fine the driver/company involved in this. Maybe then it will finally stop idiot truck drivers from driving around with their buckets/booms up.

    Toronto CIBC SQUARE | 241.39m | 50s | Hines | WilkinsonEyre

    Indeed, often times I even see guys on site early in the mornings (ie: 1AM).

    Toronto Eaton Centre (Ongoing Renewal) | ?m | ?s | Cadillac Fairview | Zeidler

    Definitely a massive improvement and one that is extremely well done. But unfortunately for every one of those, there's a 401 Bay + Eaton Centre + Sherway Gardens. They've missed a lot more than they've hit.

    Toronto Eaton Centre (Ongoing Renewal) | ?m | ?s | Cadillac Fairview | Zeidler

    Oh god, here we go again. This firm is not capable of competently renovating anything so it can actually be an improvement.

    Toronto 5 Huntley | 209.2m | 63s | EHLP | Turner Fleischer

    I've been harping on this point for some time now but it's getting to the point that i'm starting to oppose developments around St.James Town unless it contributes, in one way or another, some substantial benefit back to the community. That can be in affordable housing, retail, community space...

    Roads: Gardiner Expressway catch-all, incl. Hybrid Design (2015-onwards)

    Its actually quite impressive to see how quickly they've moved on demolishing the barriers, while laying down fresh concrete and asphalt. I can point out numerous sites in the city where roads have been dug up and concrete has been poured, but yet asphalt hasnt been poured for weeks on end so...

    TTC: Other Items (catch all)

    Is it confirmed that the crossovers will be in-line? I know there's a couple by the side of the MSF and some turnout tracks in-line, but last time I took a look it was tough to tell if there was any crossovers by the mainline track around the MSF. Not sure I would describe it as very good, if...

    TTC: Other Items (catch all)

    I purposely omitted the MSF crossover as I cant imagine how useful that would be for an in-service disruption, but you're certainly correct. That's interesting regarding crossover at Science Centre, I thought I saw that it was intended to be on the south end of the station but later it was...

    TTC: Other Items (catch all)

    There's a crossover east and west of Exhibition Station, another east of Queen station, one west of the Don portal, one north of Pape station, one north of Science Centre station. So a total of 6. I've marked the rough areas of where they will be located in red. It's easier to see the dearth of...

    TTC: Other Items (catch all)

    Ah so it's one of those days in the TTC where there's incidents every hour on the hour huh? Was there some kind of mass release from the Toronto South Detention Centre in the past few days or something, my goodness. It's going to be fun seeing how big chunks of the Ontario Line will have to be...

    Toronto St Lawrence Market North | 25.3m | 5s | City of Toronto | Rogers Stirk Harbour

    Oh if only I had money lying around like a multi-millionaire, i'd fork over the $1350 just to expose the city in full sight on their complete BS and get to the bottom of their rubbish decision. Nevertheless, definitely appreciate you doing the FOI @DSC

    Toronto 2189 Lake Shore West | 195.97m | 59s | Marlin Spring | Wallman Architects

    The First Capital development is pretty much the only hope of that (minus the part that Pemberton). We already know the type of garbage Marlin Spring will bring to the table, and Pemberton will bring a level of garbage marginally better but overall almost the same as well.

    Toronto 150 Eglinton East | 236.75m | 61s | Madison Group | Rafael Viñoly

    Agreed i'm not holding my breath at all. I'm sure all that red will be stripped away with dark grey or black in very short order.
